Training sessions that make masters cyclist faster climbers
Description
What's the point of training, Why don't we just ride our bikes to get fit?
From experience coaching master cyclists and myself using the methods I'm just about to talk about they are all stronger, faster better climbers than anyone who "Just rides their bikes"
If you want to improve your average speed over longer distances and climb hills faster stay tuned
My core focus in my own training and the cyclists I coach is to
Grow strength
Increase Vo2 Max
Increase lactate Threshold
Increase Lactate Clearance
Develop an aerobic engine to go faster with less effort
All this is possible as we age. You know that to be true because there are master cyclists out there still smashing in exceptional times in sportives, Time Trials and cracking out stunning PB's on KOMS
One thing is for sure older cyclists who stay fast and strong up hills are not JUST RIDING their bikes week in and week out they are being focused, specific and consistent
In this episode, I talk about the training that got me fast and give examples of sessions that helped me stay fast up hills. I'm trying a new shorter format. I hope you like it.
